I finally got her! 😃

It's really weird to see something you've made get so many positive reactions. Especially when, all the while, you're kicking yourself over what you could've done better.

Cinderella practice drawing The original plan was to render this fully, but I decided it didn't do her enough justice. If I draw Cindy, I'm going all out. Pose, background, etc. Lord knows how long that will take...😓 #NIKKE

Bruh, my Marciana drawing just got like 100+ likes in the last 24 hours. I average 20-30 likes on a good day. My reaction at seeing the number of notifications: 👁️👄👁️

Next time I try rendering anatomy, I'll tone down the blending/blur tools and instead utilize more solid shadow shapes. 🤔

The best part of being an unknown artist is that I can switch up my style/genre on a dime and no one would care. Don't be surprised if instead of well-endowed anime girls, I suddenly pivot to western-style comic illustrations a la Jeff Smith's Bone series.

Are there any artists that depict male characters with the same level of detail/care as the NIKKE official artists do with their female characters? I'm looking for inspiration.

Energizer Bunny Noir If Shift Up won't give my girl an alt, I'll just have to do it myself. She looks a little tired... Eh, I'm sure she's fine!🙃 #NIKKE #NIKKEfanart

Kintoki and Ness. Just a neat little idea I had. #FGO #Earthbound #Mother2

Biscione from #FGO FINALLY managed to get this one done... I'm still trying to figure out my style/aesthetic, but I am pleased with how this turned out.

I love Noir so much... #NIKKE #NIKKEfanart

"A Man of Wealth and Taste" Inspired by the song Sympathy For The Devil. Which version do you like more, The Rolling Stones (Original) or Guns N' Roses (Cover)?

Scheherazade #FGO She's my favorite Servant, so I had to draw her at least once. I also put her in a swimsuit because why not?

I still have no idea how I want my stuff (characters, environments, general aethetics) to look. Seriously, I'm stuck in a constant "inspiration loop" consisting of Japanese media, western comics, fine art paintings, and Gege Akutami. I NEED to figure this out soon or I'll tear my hair out...

#FGO Tamamo Cat drawing. Unfortunately I forgot to re-enable timelapse on Clip Studio, so no process video 😔. One Servant down, many more to go.

More Assyrian-themed sketches

"Kneel" I could write an entire essay regarding this piece, but for now I'll just say that it's the thing I've put the most effort into spanning literal YEARS of off-and-on again progress. I want to do more stuff like this in the future, mixing traditional and digital art.

Scott Flanders-inspired concept sketch.

"In which a normal FGO player wakes up as Gudao at the beginning of Part One" By me. #FGO

Flustered Ade from #NIKKE Still plenty of room for improvement IMO.

Practice

Perhaps I should do one of those art challenges where you're supposed to create something in under 2 hours. Supposedly, doing that repeatedly is the fastest way to improve (or so I've heard).

This was a coloring experiment. Rendering characters has always been a weakness of mine. I got this far, but I have no idea how to proceed. Maybe in the future I'll come back to this and either finish it or redo it from scratch.
